   Increasing New Year's resolutions for healthier eating, Purdue report finds

   Статистика

   25% of US consumers had a food/nutrition-related New Year's resolution in 2024 (up 6 pp from 2023); the majority plan to increase fruits, vegetables and water while limiting salty snacks, sugary foods, regular soft drinks and alcohol; 46% anticipate cravings as an obstacle

   Витяг

   “"25% of consumers responded 'yes' when asked if they had any food or nutrition-related New Year's resolutions, up 6 percentage points from the response to the same question last year... the survey-based report out of Purdue University's Center for Food Demand Analysis and Sustainability...included 1,200 consumers across the U.S." ”

   Purdue Center for Food Demand Analysis and Sustainability, Consumer Food Insights, Volume 3 Issue 1, January 2024, N=1,200 US consumers. The 25% headline is the share of US consumers with ANY food/nutrition-related New Year's resolution, covering many dietary goals (more fruit/veg/water, less salty snacks, sugary foods, soft drinks, alcohol) — it is NOT a snacking-specific figure and NOT a regret measure. Because the report says \"the majority\" of those resolutions target the salty-snacks/sugary-foods/soft-drinks/alcohol basket (not snacking alone), the snacking-targeted share is roughly 0.25 x ~50-70% = 13-18% of all US adults. We therefore set the action-side proxy to the midpoint, ~15% (regret_rate 0.15), and label it explicitly as prospective resolution intent to cut snacks/sugary foods, not retrospective regret about snacking. The earlier 25% figure fused the all-resolutions headline with a snacking claim and overstated the snacking-targeted signal; this has been corrected.

   Snack Consumption by U.S. Adults: What We Eat in America, NHANES 2017 - March 2020

   Статистика

   95% of US adults aged 20+ consume one or more foods or beverages as a snack on the intake day; 78% consume two or more snacks; snacks provide on average 24% of daily energy and 43% of added sugars among consumers

   Витяг

   “"Among adults aged 20 years and older, 95% consume one or more foods and/or beverages at a snack on the intake day... Currently, consuming multiple snacks is the norm, with 78% consuming two or more on any given day. Among consumers, snacks provide on average 24% of daily intake of energy and 43% of added sugars." ”

   USDA Dietary Data Brief No. 53, based on NHANES 2017-March 2020 nationally representative dietary recall data. Establishes the prevalence baseline: 95% of US adults snack at least once on a given day; 78% snack multiple times; snacks contribute 24% of daily energy and 43% of added sugars on average. Used here on the action side as the govt_report context: snacking is the normal modern US eating pattern, not a deviation. This is NOT the regret-rate figure; that is from Purdue Jan 2024 (see above). The NHANES data establishes that the question \"do you regret snacking?\" applies to nearly all US adults if at all, and that the dietary stakes (43% of added sugars from snacks among consumers) are concrete.

   Snacking Increased among U.S. Adults between 1977 and 2006

   Статистика

   US adult snacking prevalence increased from 71% to 97% between 1977-78 and 2003-06; contribution of snacks to total energy intake increased from 18% to 24%

   “"snacking prevalence increased significantly from 71 to 97% in 2003-2006... the percentage of snacking on both d 1 and d 2 increased from 42 to 78%... the contribution of snacks to total energy intake increased from 18 to 24%." ”

   Розрахунок

   Piernas & Popkin (J Nutr 2010) established the long-run shift: US adult snacking went from a minority behavior (71% on any given day in 1977-78) to near-universal (97% by 2003-06), with the share of daily energy from snacks rising from 18% to 24%. Used on the action side as the peer-reviewed historical baseline for the prevalence claim above. This is NOT the action-side regret-rate figure; that is the snacking-specific share (~15%) derived from Purdue's January 2024 resolution survey (see above). Snacking-related regret has not been directly surveyed in the US, so the action side relies on a prospective resolution-intent proxy, not a retrospective regret measure.

   Розрахунок

   Gallup national poll, N=1,001 US adults, fielded November 6-20, 2024, margin of error ±4 percentage points. Used here as the inaction-side proxy: 27% of US adults are actively pursuing weight management, a state that implies current dissatisfaction with some aspect of current eating behavior including the absence of structural snacking discipline. This is NOT a direct regret measure about the meals-only pattern; in fact, the meals-only pattern is the minority position (95% of US adults snack daily per NHANES), so the question \"do you regret not snacking?\" is structurally rare. The 27% captures the directional signal: a substantial minority of US adults are actively dissatisfied enough with their current diet to do something about it, and \"cut the snacks\" is one of the most common dietary-change targets in popular guidance.

   Незалежність

   Independent Gallup national poll using random-digit-dial methodology; no shared sample with USDA NHANES or Piernas & Popkin. Different methodology and different construct.

   Meals and snacking, diet quality and energy balance

   Статистика

   Snacking may contribute to excess energy intake and weight gain via context, frequency and food quality; in some reports snacking facilitates energy-intake adjustment to needs, in others (especially obese populations) it contributes energy but little nutrition

   Витяг

   “"Snacking may contribute to excess energy intake and weight gain through different ways, for example: context/environment of eating, frequency of consumption and quality of food choices. In many reports, snacking appears to facilitate the adjustment of energy intake to needs, and to contribute carbohydrates, rather than fats, to the diet. By contrast, snacking often appears to contribute much energy but little nutrition in the diet of other consumers, particularly obese children and adults." ”

   Розрахунок

   Bellisle (Physiology & Behavior 2014) is the canonical peer- reviewed review framing the meal-frequency literature. The critical finding: eating frequency does not independently predict body weight when total energy intake is controlled. Used here on the inaction side as the literature basis for the observation that the case for a meals-only pattern is genuinely contested — snacking neither clearly causes obesity nor clearly prevents it, and the same eating pattern can have different effects depending on food quality and context. This is NOT the regret rate; that is from Gallup 2024. Bellisle's review provides the scientific context that weakens the case for the inaction side carrying strong regret: most US adults snack, most US adults who snack are not measurably worse off for it when energy intake is matched, and the few who reverse to a meals-only pattern do not have unambiguous evidence that their previous behavior was harmful.

   Незалежність

   Independent peer-reviewed academic review with publicly disclosed methodology; Bellisle has published widely on eating frequency, including some industry-funded studies on snacking listed in her overall body of work but the 2014 P&B review is not directly industry-sponsored.
